PASS leaders host weekly, group study sessions for select challenging courses. (See the bottom of this page for list of the courses with openings for PASS leaders.) PASS leaders prepare lesson plans for their study sessions to help students review lecture notes, study course content, work on practice problems, discuss study skills, and more. Leaders also attend the lecture for the course they are supporting, participate in trainings throughout the semester, and complete administrative tasks including tracking attendance and writing reports about sessions. The goal of PASS is to foster a collaborative environment where students study together. PASS leaders do not re-teach or lecture on course material.
PASS leaders earn $15/hour and typically work 7-10 hours per week including preparing lesson plans, running weekly sessions, attending course lectures, and attending mandatory trainings.
